Long lines, signs out of gas? Demand up supply down, $104+ a barrel. What bullshit! We are imploding.

1. Horses are our friends!
   
As are our bikes.

I don't think people have a clue how near we
are to a complete collapse.

7. Consumer wars over food...
   
Only a matter of time before the supply/availability of food
is dwarfed by the demand.

I'm stocking up on as much as I can.
Rice, beans, oatmeal etc...

Seriously thinking about what type of gun to buy too.

5. Empires don't collapse overnight.
   
It's a slow-motion affair that takes a couple of generations at least. The collapse of the American Empire is already under way. Our grandchildren will live in a third-world country.

Because the majority of Americans are ****ing clueless.

American Idol politics!

17. Can we start with rationing the gazillions of barrels going to fuel the war machines?
   
Just think how cheap gas could go if we didn't need
to fuel all those humvees, tanks and F-16s?

Can anyone imagine how cheap gas would be if the environmental whacked out liberals hadn't spent the last forty years trying and succeeding to kill every effort to make the United states of America a major player in the game of oil? 

Can anyone imagine how cheap gas could be if we stopped taking seriously the idiots who claim drilling for oil in the most Godforsaken place on earth will kill a polar bear?  Can you imagine?  The day we stop looking these freaks in the eyes and taking them seriously?

Can anyone imagine how cheap gas would be if Bill Clinton hadn't cover the largest deposit is pure shale oil in the world, three times larger than the oil reserves in Saudi Arabia, with the protection of being a National Monument?

Virtually every big problem this country has can be traced right back to LIBERALISM. That being said I think that DUmmies everywhere need to line up and kiss my ass. :censored: :censored:

I would add to that if they weren`t hell bent against nuclear power too.

God, these people are so stupid.

There will NOT be lines.  That was the result of the price controls under uber-idiot carter.  What will happen is the price will raise until equilibrium is hit (anyone who has even glanced at Economics 101 knows how supply and demand and quantity supplied and quantity demanded works).

And, as was noted upstream, it is because liberal policies have kept refineries from being built and from tapping into the USA's VERY LARGE oil beds in ANWR.

Hoisted on their own petard.  Come on, $4 a gallon!  If makes no difference to me and it might keep the illegals out and screw up liberals (who tend to keep themselves broke and stupid).

My wife called me this afternoon from her latest perch, which is Houston.  She had to fill up her truck because the low fuel light came on.  Gasoline was $3.06 per gallon.  Her tank cost her $64.00.  She was in moonbat rage (not her character). 

I laughed.

I asked her, "You always push your trip-o-meter when you fill up, right?"

She said, "Right."

I asked her, "How far did you go on the last tank?"

She said, "Well, I drove to Houston and this is the first time I've needed gas".

I asked again, "How far did you go?"

She said, "It was about 490 mile".

I said, "You'd bitch about someone or something taking you 490 miles for $60.00???"

She said, "There's no talking to you!"

I said, "I'm sorry.  I love you."

If we had a dime for every "discussion" that ended that way we could keep our wives in gas forever.

And, dammit, you can probably trace every score for liberalism right back to us stupid men who want our wives to feel better.
